I missed almost all of the practice sessions waiting in line.

You have to keep checking D1gp.com for information as they update the site. Usually they won't sell tickets til like a month before the event is held. When they are avalible you can order them early and hope you get your tickets in the mail and not will call like me.

Octagon, I hope you come here and show the punks what drifting is about. We have some real uncle ben's up here...and Brian is the leader :P j/k

Imma go to the one in fontana and all of them in irwindale. I went to the 2003 in irwindale. man was that an experience. i pre-ordered my tickets and they came like three days before the event date, went at six in the mornin and still had to wait in line to get in. though i have to say it was all worth it
